A couple of fun challenges today! I love the CAS color inspiration picture & though I have a few layers, it really is CAS. I did have a couple of false starts with this one & the original plan was a tad simpler, but it is what it is. And I had fun trying the ribbon flower for the TLC challenge.
I inked the lavender image w/ elderberry & n. pine ink and stamped it on w/c paper. I added just a touch of color, very quickly, then die cut it. The other layers were also die cut, so I didn't even have to think about it. On the rectangle I did do some piercing & the word "lavender" was stamped down one side. The sheer ribbon was white & I tinted it w/ a rose quartz Copic marker.
Thanks so much for looking! I'll have it on my blog w/ closeups after dinner: The Write Stuff

Beautiful, Julie. So pretty and delicate. The piercing just makes it all the more so and what a lovely lavender image. I love lavender and always have a spray bottle of hydrosol on hand for freshening and disinfecting as there is a lavender farm nearby
